A 600W Gnome sounds very interesting. It’s essentially what Trace should have done with the Elf 2 years ago. We’re still waiting for their 1200W offering aren’t we!

Ah the MB800? A fine choice sir if so!

Good work! Did you get the Boogie?

@Cosmicrain has built a fair few basses with them in, for example the recent Funkmeister P he built for @GreeneKing They may be able to offer some thoughts

Amps are, for once, something I’m quite comfortable with, the Glock has just blown everything else out of the water to the point I don’t feel any GAS for anything else*. But I do feel the need for a tiny back up head - more for the sale of buying something than any real need or fear of the Glock giving up. That’s where I’d put my money on my failure to succeed with this 😃 *unless a blackface Mesa Walkabout head appears. Irrational want rather than need. Is the MK500 not doing it for you?

Winning. I’m still out though. I can feel it in my bones 😅

Likewise mate haha 😆 I’m already out though, I commissioned a new Zoot bass this year which will be making its way home in 2022. Though to be fair it was paid for this year too, so does that really count for my 2021 intake?

I actually quite liked Parachutes at first. But then, in my second year at university, the guy in the room above me in our shared house played it non-stop EVERY DAMN DAY for about 9 months. Christ that was hard work. Their more recent output hasn't even registered on my radar.

The ABM produces 600W into 4 ohms. 8 ohms doesn’t come into the equation if you’re pairing the amp with a 4 ohm cab

Oooft. Me likey. I need to pay more attention to his creations!

Pretty sure you mean GR..: https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/GR_Bass_Cabinets.html

Don’t tell Jen you have a secret admirer 😅

That is quite the sexy beast

A normal year in the Travis household then

Deep breath. Here we go: IN ACG TKO Classic Glockenklang Blue Rock Barefaced Two10S Barefaced Machinist (but I won this, I didn’t buy it!) MXR Bass Octave (which will be sold again soon, when I can get my derrière in gear) Mooer Bass Sweeper Various LaBella and Status strings OUT Ashdown RM210T Ashdown RM800 Teetering on the verge of being out: Barefaced One10 (I have two, plus the Two10, so only one is being kept and @eudeis taking the other) Ashdown ABM (since getting the Glock this just never gets a look in) MXR Bass Octave (as mentioned above. Bought because I thought I needed it, turns out I didn’t)

I play in a loud rock band with two guitarists and a heavy hitting drummer. My Barefaced Two10 destroyed them last week at rehearsal because I got a bit over-zealous with the volume control on my Glockenklang Blue Rock 😅

Yup I’m all about smaller bodied basses too. It’s the future (for me…). Along with 30-32” scale.

I just slipped a disc looking at that

I was reasonably active on there til around 2015/16 I think. There was a small selection of about 15-20 regular members who were very knowledgeable, funny and interesting to talk to but there were a lot of threads which got a little derogatory about BC... Still talk to a few of the guys, and indeed it was Finnbass which started my love affair with both ACG and Zoot. Whilst the demise is a shame it's not really been doing anything for a number of years.

I keep coming back to this one to ogle. Plus the 32” Jake L 5P on the Public Peace shop. That is sexy AF. 32” is my favourite scale length. And the longest I have in my arsenal now

Pics! Need pics!

Yup spot on maths I run the Glock in 2.67 ohm mode so the Two10 is 4 ohms

Lovely!
